The InternationalDay of Forests has beencelebratedon March 21 since 2012,calling people
to pay attention to the green lungs of our planet. The theme this year is “forest and health”,
reminding us how forests purify the water, clean the air, and provide food and life-saving
medicinesforalllivingbeingsonEarth.
Forests cover 31 percent of the global land area. More than half of the world’s forests are
found in only five countries. They are Brazil, Canada, China, Russia and the United States. Over
thepastyears,Chinahasplayedakeyroleinmakingtheworldgreener.
In 1949, the forest coverage rate of China was only 8.6 percent, and the national forest area
just over 80 million hectares. Carrying out big national projects like the Three-North Shelterbelt
Forest Program, the Beijing-Tianjin Sandstorm Source Control Program and Natural Forest
Protection Program not only improves the environment in China, but also contributes to the
world’snewforestarea.
According to China’s Land-greening Bulletin, the national forest area in 2022 has reached
231 million hectares.At present, China’s forest area comes fifth in the world and China’s planted
forest area comes first globally,according to the Food andAgriculture Organization of the United
Nations.
“The NASA satellites have watched Earth grow greener over the last 20 years. China has
added 25 percent to this global increase, and 42 percent of China’s green cover comes from
forests,”saidZhuQingke,ProfessoratBeijingForestryUniversity.
The National Forestry and Grassland Administration is now making the Three-year Action
Plan on Large-scale scientific land-greening, which points out China’s land-greening targets
between 2023 and 2025. According to the plan, the yearly land-greening area should be 6.67
millionhectaresandtheyearlyplantedforestareashouldnotbelowerthan1.33millionhectares.

South Koreans usedto notreallycare abouthowto sorttheir waste too, butin the year 1995,
their government took a different path from most of the other countries: they set a systematic and
strict waste management standard. Their government knows for sure that a good waste
management system brings lots of good things like money-saving and environmentcaring. They
didalmosteverythingtoensuretheirwastereduction.
One of the most notable technologies that South Koreans use in their waste management
system is the electronic food waste bin. People will have to tap their identification card before
they could throw their waste into the public garbage bin. The garbage bin will then measure the
weightofthewasteandthensendthegarbagebilltotheperson.
The food waste reduction is done not only by preventing people to make it in the first place,
butalsobyusingitastheircattlefood.
Here below several interesting things you might want to know about South Korea’s waste
managementsystem.
Almost similar to Germany,a public garbage area existed in the flat in South Korea.You are
expectedtosortyourwastewithoutfailandputitintotherightbins.Herearethetypesofgarbage
binprovidedinSouthKorea:
·FoodWaste,anythingthatcouldbeeatenbyanimals
·RecyclableWaste
·OversizedWaste,mostlyelectronicandfurniture
·GeneralWaste,anythingthatdoesn’tbelongtotheothertypes
It might sound much simpler but don’t be too careless, because South Korea has a pretty
strict rule. For example, because food waste bin is reserved for anything that can be eaten by
animals, you have to separate the bones from your meat waste, put the meat waste in the food
wastebinandputtherestofthebonesinthegeneralwastebin.
Rome isn’t built in a day, the same thing applies to a great waste management system. It
needstobesupportedbythegovernmentandallthepeople.
5.Whocanthrowthewasteintothepublicgarbagebin?

This is just some of the food waste produced from the Clipper Cafe in Shaldon in the UK.It
was sent away for processing or to landfill, but they found a new way to deal with it.This
machine breaks down the waste in less than 24 hours – reducing the volume by up to 90% –
producingamaterialthatcanbeputbackonthefarm.
PeterFrench,cafeandfarmowner
It's become noticeable over the years how much material goes to waste – food waste in the
kitchenpreparationandscrapingplatesofleftoversandallthatmaterialisfullofnutrient thatwe
reallydoneedonthefarmtokeepthesoilhealthyandproductivefornextyear’scrops.
It works by using heat and enzymes to reduce the water content. It’s hoped it will help the
environment.
WilliamBedell,machineprovider
Going to landfill is doing a huge amount of harm to the environment. So, we are addressing
thisfoodwasteon-sitewhereit’sproduced.
The farm and cafe are part of the same business. Much of the produce for the cafe comes
fromthefarm.Andthecafeisnowsendingbacktheleftovers.
JohnBloom,machineuser
It just feels right to be returning that organic matter back to the land that originally produced
the food.All the fibres of what we're putting in is broken down. The heating cycle has cooked all
the pathogens and such like that we don't want to put back onto the farm. And it’s a lovely
